Primary care physicians can be instrumental in the initial identification of potential sexual, emotional, and physical abuse of children. We reviewed the use of children's artwork as a method of communicating individual and family functioning. A quantitative method of analyzing children's artwork provides more reliability and validity than some methods used previously. A new scoring system was developed that uses individual human figure drawings and kinetic family drawings. This scoring system was based on research with 842 children (341 positively identified as sexually molested, 252 positively not sexually molested but having emotional or behavioral problems, and 249 "normal" public school children). This system is more comprehensive than previous systems of assessment of potential abuse.
初级保健医生在初步识别儿童潜在的性虐待、情感虐待和身体虐待方面可以发挥重要作用。我们回顾了将儿童绘画作品作为一种传达个人和家庭功能的方法的应用情况。与之前使用的一些方法相比，一种分析儿童绘画作品的定量方法具有更高的可靠性和有效性。我们开发了一种新的评分系统，该系统使用个人人物绘画和动态家庭绘画。这个评分系统是基于对842名儿童的研究得出的（341名被确认为遭受性虐待，252名虽未遭受性虐待但存在情感或行为问题，249名是“正常”的公立学校儿童）。该系统比以往评估潜在虐待的系统更为全面。
